100,000 miles Brand new bike!.

On the trip up north my bike rolled over 100,000 miles. I think it's pretty cool so I shot a video of it. It is a 1996 FLHTCU. I bought the bike in May 2010 with 54k on it. The base gaskets were (still are) weeping a little bit of oil. I put a new cam, cam bearing, and tappets in it at 67k miles. It already had a different cam in it when I put in the Andrews EV23. It had an EV27 in it when I bought it. So someone had been into the cam cavity before me but I don't think the top end has ever been off.

I'm going to just keep riding her until she starts smoking or making bad noises. As of right now I have no reason to overhaul it. Here's a short 1 minute video of the odometer rolling over
